Pressure in the form of rising blinds is about to force people to do something - it's gone from 4k/8k to 6k/12k...
Just now Jim Mcbride re-raised all in (85k or so total) over the top of Driton Haxhiaj, who made one of those head-shaking folds signifying, most likely, a hand in the cookie jar. I am expecting something I can report any minute now.

And here it is: Chris Huyton is OUT in 8th place, winning £2,500
He was short-stacked, especially with these new blinds, and when he moved in he received four callers (one was the original raiser Bill Davies). It was in fact Bill's flush which took out the eighth place, but there was a look of determination on the faces of the other players to knock out at least one this hour.

Driton Haxhiaj is down to the felt after this hand against Bill Davies... What started off as a fourway flop -    got heads up as Bill bet out 16k and Driton called. Turn:  Bill bets another 16k. Driton eventually calls (he only had about 45k before making this call). River:  Bill bets another 16k. Now this can't be a nice river for Driton as someone who might have been betting the nut club draw might have just rivered a sneaky straight (can you tell what's going to happen?)...but he calls with his   nonetheless.  and the  in Bill's hand, and the chip leader for a good portion of the tournament is now on life support. |

Outdrawtastic elimination news now: Anthony Kirkbride limps in under the gun. It folds to Dick Shek in the small blind who raises to 36k (leaving himself 40k behind). Anthony dwells for a while, but must have made a decision that he'd folded to short stacks too much, and anyway, he had a lot of chips. He raised the unfoldable 40k; call. Dick showed:   Anthony showed:  Flop:   Turn:  River:  Poker is a skill game which is occasionally buried under a luck avalanche. |

I wasn't kidding when I said that once Ryan Fronda got off the 20k mark on the final table he could win it... he just doubled up off Bill Davies, who raised on the button with , then faced a +73k re-raise from Ryan in the big blind. He called; Ryan had  The board brought both the King and Queen, but since a pair of Kings is a higher hand than a pair of Queens, Fronda won and is now looking dangerous. |
